Yvette Borja interviews Ahilan Arulanantham and Mariah Tso about the Mapping Deportations Project, which unmasks the history of racist immigration enforcement dating back to 1895, the first year that the government published data on deportations. They discuss the challenges of compiling and making sense of centuries-long data of deportations and exclusions, the Mapping Deportations data visualizations that show how immigration enforcement has policed the racial boundaries of the U.S. over time, and whether a non-racist border/ immigration enforcement system can exist.
